**CONTINGENCY
A 10% construction budget contingency has been added to the calculator to anticipate market price increases between the time of design commencement and construction contract, as well as unique building requirements and conditions.

SCHEDULE EFFICIENCY
The DFA STUDIO PROGRAM seeks to streamline the design, approval, and construction process. A project schedule will be prepared for each STUDIO PROGRAM project.
